Simple Tapioca Pudding image

This is from my Nana's recipe box, her recipe for tapioca pudding. I have no idea where she originally found the recipe, but it's simple and tastes great. If you have an Asian grocery store near you, try finding the multicoloured pearls, they add a bit of fun colour to a traditional pudding. Great served either warm or chilled, with cooking time of around 30-40 minutes. Complete comfort food item!

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup tapioca
3 cups 2% low-fat milk (if pearls are soaked overnight, use 2-1/2 cups milk)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • I recommend soaking the tapioca pearls in 2 cups of water the night before as it reduces some of the excess starch and means less cooking time.
  • In a 1-1/2 quart saucepan, combine the tapioca pearls, the milk, and salt. Stir frequently on medium-high heat until the mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat to minimum and simmer 5 minutes. Add the sugar in gradually, stirring constantly.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the 2 eggs. A little at a time, add some of the tapioca mixture to the eggs and continue stirring. This is "tempering" the eggs and will bring them up to temperature gently, preventing the eggs from scrambling.
  • Add the tempered egg mixture to the tapioca. Gently bring the mixture back up to near-boiling. Reduce heat to minimum and simmer, stirring constantly, until desired consistency is reached. Pearls should be translucent and gelatinous.
  • Allow tapioca to cool 15 minutes before adding the vanilla. Serve warm or chill until serving time.

I followed the recipe exactly and my tapioca pudding turned out lumpy. I'm not sure what I did wrong. Maybe I didn't stir it enough?

This tapioca pudding is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time. Otherwise, it's a good recipe and the tapioca pearls were cooked perfectly.

I'm not a huge fan of tapioca pudding, but this recipe changed my mind. The tapioca pearls were cooked perfectly and the pudding had a lovely creamy texture. I especially liked the addition of the vanilla bean. It gave the pudding a rich and complex

This tapioca pudding is a great way to use up leftover tapioca pearls. I had some leftover from making bubble tea and I didn't want them to go to waste. This pudding was the perfect solution! It was easy to make and it turned out delicious.
